  Intense, still youthful, showing honey melon, white peach, cream and nuttiness.
  
  The palate is dry, with a pretty zingy acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, and a tactile touch of tannin. Intense fruit flavours, in the honey melon, stone fruit spectrum, and well integrated French oak that gives a nuttiness and some spice to the wine. There is also a definitive note of lime and lime zest on the finish, and a bitter note that lifts the wine. Long and complex, and not showing any real signs of age. Drinks beautifully now, but will keep for another 2-3 years.
  
  Outstanding.

  Huge toasty nose. A big glossy style, full of creamy toasty oak and tropical fruit. Not too over the top, it feels like the oak has been managed very well. Good length.
